Christmas Light Switch-On Event
The Christmas Light Switch-On Event took place on Friday15 November and the terrible weather didn’t dampen the spirits of all those who came along. For health and safety reasons the planned schedule had to be altered slightly on the night but everyone involved worked hard to make sure the event went ahead as near as possible to plan given the weather conditions. As well as street and stage entertainment, food and market stalls, Santa and his wife Mary Christmas visited the event. There was an opportunity for children to have their photos taken with Santa in his ice sleigh and to post their Christmas letters in a post box made of ice.

For those that missed Santa and Mary Christmas they will be in the Keel Row Shopping Centre every Saturday until Christmas. Click here for details.
Review of Planters and Planting
We are taking the opportunity, during the winter months, to review the location of planters around the Town. Some will be relocated and others replaced before the next planting season.
As usual, we are also working with our Partners at Northumberland County Council to review the planting, We are looking to upgrade existing planting in key areas and provide additional planting.
New bulb planting at Links View and Portland Wynd was carried out in late October as an addition to the successful spring bulb planting in other areas.
